Fooled Again.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
executive committee Of the independ-
ent labor movement had postponed their
convention, some Of the primary msnip-
ulators made vain endeavOr to hold q
bogus convention. Only few persons
attended, and most of these speedily re-
tired when they took in the situation
and saw that j. p. O'Lesry had his eagle
eye on the business. Then the manipu-
latOrs wisely decided to avoid further
ridicule by abandoning their project.

A DEAD HOPE.
Hrittsn for TIE .Norn,inn Ne,rs.

Written for the Morning Neics.
Tread softly when you reach that sunless region
Deep in my heart,
Which hides from thoughts whose name is
Legion,
A thing apart.
Tread softly. tbs true the dead sleep soundly,
From dreams quite free,
Yet sleep my beauteous dead neer SO pro-
foundry
Id have you be.
Gentle indeed, when you draw near that pallid
presence
And lift the sheet,
To look upon the passioness dead face Of her
Who made my life sweet.
And if you start in awe at the unearthly beauty
OF that dead face:
Think what 1t must have been while life yet
lent it
Bewildering grace
Think of the eyes. whose steady tender shining,
Soothed pain TO rest
The voice, when music drowned life's harshest
discords
Within my breast.
The strange glad smile that turned into day
All shadowy places,
Whose mere reflection lent brighter beauty
To other faces.
The subtle, sweet thrill that passed through all
my being,
And which yet fingers,
That once was mine thro' the mere magic touch
OF these marble fingers.
Too late for tears And, yes--a blest Faith
whispers
That in brighter land,
HAPPY I'll find my one sweet hope who persisted
By your own hand. PATS.

'Tis hard, indeed if nothing will defend
Mankind from quarrels, but their fatal end;
That now and then hero must deceaSe
That the surviving world max live in pecce.
Perhaps, at last, close scrutiny may show
The practice dastardly, and mean, and low;
That men engage in it, compelled by force,
And fear, not courage, is its proper source;
The fear of tyrant custom, and the fear
Lest tops should censure us, and fools should
sheer,
At least to trample on our Makers laws,
And hazard life for any or no cause.
